It’s October! Lovely crisp fall air, still sunny days but we all know the rain can’t be far away. The buzz is building—Fibers & Beyond is only 10 days away. Are you ready? Signed up for classes? Ready for the sale? What can you do to make this an even greater show than last year? You too can help advertise our fabulous event— see page 7 for ideas. Host your friends and family—many of them would love the opportunity of not only visiting our show, but maybe even a first time trip to the inspiring Jansen Art Center. Do you have some spare time to help out at the Sale? Marilyn Olsen would love to hear from you—see her note on page 3.

All sorts of news inside on shows being hosted by our sister ANWG Guilds—don’t miss out! And the Small Looms Group is back in operation on Saturday, October 7th—see Sharon Allen’s note on page 3. And of course, if you are looking for a loom to purchase, we have them in our Classifieds at the end of newsletter, with photos!​Happy Weaving!
